Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	This Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment (ADBA) has been undertaken by Border Archaeology Ltd (BA) in response to an instruction from Kristian Kaminski MA FSA IHBC Properties Curator (London), English Heritage, with regard to proposed scheme of drainage works within the pasture ground to the rear of Kenwood House (The Iveagh Bequest), a Grade I listed mansion of 17th-18th century date. Kenwood House and its pasture ground lie within a Grade II* Registered Park and Garden, laid out in the mid-18th century and further altered in the 1790s by the noted landscape designer Humphry Repton. The site also lies within the Tier 3 Archaeological Priority Area (APA) of ‘Hampstead Heath and Parliament Hill Fields’, as defined in the Archaeological Priority Areas Appraisal for the London Borough of Camden (Historic England 2018). Acknowledgements to Kristian Kaminski, Properties Curator, and Dr Emily Parker, Landscape Advisor (English Heritage), for kindly providing copies of historic mapping, published and unpublished reports and other historical information relating to Kenwood House. Overall Conclusion: The overall archaeological potential of the site may be assessed as High, with particular reference to encountering buried remains of walls and other features associated with the walled gardens and yards to the south and east of Kenwood House, which are shown on mid to late 18th century plans, prior to the extensive landscaping works undertaken at Kenwood for the 2nd Earl of Mansfield during the mid-1790s. Recommendations: Given the High archaeological potential of the site, it is suggested that an appropriate programme of archaeological work, the details of which to be agreed in consultation with English Heritage, Historic England and the Greater London Archaeological Advisory Service, will be necessary to determine the extent, depth and significance of buried archaeological features and deposits within the area of the proposed drainage works.
